Fuck! Forgot The Decline - near the top. And Heathen. And I'd drop Rush of Blood in there too, somewhere towards the bottom. And Wind In The Wire. And this new Mountain Goats (danke mr fullerov!). But defo no Jay-Z like Pitchfork. (Weird there was so much hip-hop on their Top 100 and then barely any on the individual writers' 100s. A PC move, y'a think?) These lists are stupid anyway. ;-)

Why would it be PC? Dubious/false and an attempt to show their seemingly eclectic/well rounded tastes but why pc? Who's going to care if they don't put hip-hop in? Aren't they an alternative music web site? Ergo most of the readership won't care anyway.

Hello, i'm usually rubbish at describing what bands sound like, but TV on the Radio are one of the few bands around today, if not the only band, that sound like nobody else. If you can, download 'Dreams' or 'The Wrong Way' and see if you like them. I personally think they are ace. Hope this helps! x

The singer's voice sounds like Peter Gabriel.
They are very straight-faced, slow-burning, serious...
The "Young Liars" EP is brilliant.
I thought the album had a few not so good songs on it, but is still worth hearing.
